NNPP suspends four members of the National Assembly from Kano State
A senator and lawmakers are among the members of the Kano-based New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) who have been disciplined for alleged anti-party activities.
Alhaji Hashimu Dungurawa, the party’s state chairman, told reporters this on Monday in Kano.
According to him, the four lawmakers are Ali Maadakin Gini, a senator from Dala Federal Constituency; Alhaji Abdullahi Sani Rogo, a member from Rogo Federal Constituency; Alhaji Abdullahi Rurum, a member from Rano/Kibiya; and Senator Kawu Sumaila, who represents Kano South.
According to the NNPP party chairman, the party is disappointed in the recent behavior of several National Assembly members who were chosen on the party’s platform.
He claims that even though the lawmakers received free tickets during the party elections, these members have reportedly violated
“It is unfortunate that none of our party members who supported him, was invited to the event, including our National leader Dr. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso and the Kano State Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf”
“This action has really sparked curiosity about the senator Kawu of inviting his opponents especially those who kicked against his bid to clinch the ticket in their political party”
The party Chairman emphasised that despite the suspension, the door remained open for dialogue if the suspended members repent and seek forgiveness.
